Pandals are not allowed to sell VIP tickets. Suvendu has asked the police to see that puja committees can't raise fund by selling VIP tickets.

Then he went ahead and allowed Adani and other conglomerates to sell passes. I mean even Flipkart Minutes sold pass this year.

Isn't this epic hyprocrisy ?

অসাধারণ মূর্তি। মনে হয় যেন সারাজীবন বসে শুধু তাকিয়ে থাকি। Also, শুভ মহাসপ্তমী সবাইকে! আগামী ৪-৫ দিন যেন সবার ভালো কাটে, সুস্থ কাটে। 🤍

Politely i ask for no responses in Indian languages as I am a white person who found a photo of a family who lived in West Bengal, India on the ground of a Canadian comic shop in British Columbia nearby my house. Feel free to share it around to friends & family I'd like to send it to the next of kin (which means family) if possible. P.S. i will ONLY provide un-redacted version via PM as I don't want to publicly doxx them in case any of the family still lives at the same address.

একটা ড্রেস গিফট করেছি সিসি এর max থেকে কিনে। পরে ঠাকুর দেখতে যাবার প্ল্যান আছে।

We were one of those unlucky ones who happen to stay close to a mega puja (this is Tridhara from our window). Our life has come to a complete standstill. We cannot have medicines or essentials delivered, nor can we go out to buy things without getting stopped at every road corner. The police are completely untrained and don’t pay heed to residents pass. And then people blowing the annoying vuvuzela’s. So as you have fun, have a little empathy, spare a thought to all the octogenarians and nonagenarians who are now the principal inhabitants of this part of Kolkata.
